Crown Heights North III Historic District

On January 17, 2012, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Crown Heights North III Historic District (Item No. 3). The Crown Heights North III Historic District comprises more than 600 buildings, including single- and two-family row houses, flats buildings, and apartment houses primarily built from the 1870s to the 1930s. These buildings represent the wealth of architectural styles that flourished in Brooklyn during this period, including the Neo-Grec, Queen Anne, Romanesque Revival, Renaissance Revival, Beaux Arts, Colonial Revival, Arts and Crafts, and Art Deco styles.
